  NOTE: I already posted this in the User-to-User module forum, but it's proabably more suited to this forum. Sorry for the double post.
  
  Hi,
  
  I'm working on a custom module and am having problems with permissions.
  
  The particular function starts out like:
  
  

  Code

  function testmodule_admin_addstuff()
  {
   
    echo "Here1<br>";
  
     if (!pnSecAuthAction(0, 'testmodule', "::", ACCESS_ADD)) {
      return pnVarPrepHTMLDisplay(_MODULENOAUTH);
    }
    echo "Here2<br>";

  
  
  I added the echo statement for debugging.
  
  I created a Group called Friends and added a user to the Friends group.
  
  I am using these permissions:
  
  

  Quote

  
  1 Admins .* .* Admin
  2 All groups Menublock:: Main Menu:: None
  3 Friends testmodule:: .* Add
  4 Users .* .* Comment
  5 Unregistered Menublock:: User Menu:: None
  6 Unregistered Menublock:: Main Menu:: None
  7 Unregistered .* .* Read
  

  
  
  However, when I log into the account of a user that is a part of the "Friends" group and try to access the function, I get this error:
  
  

  Quote

  
  Sorry! You do not have authorization to access this module
  

  
  
  How can I fix my permissions to make this work?
  
  Thanks,
  Grant

  Check your permissions component in your pnSecAuthAction call - your missing the :: on testmodule.

  Thanks Mark!
  
  I had just fixed it by changing:
  
  

  Quote

  
  3 Friends testmodule:: .* Add
  

  
  
  to
  

  Quote

  
  3 Friends testmodule .* Add
  

  
  
  I guess I did it backwards. Your saying that I should really be using:
  
  

  Code

  if (!pnSecAuthAction(0, 'testmodule::', "::", ACCESS_ADD)) {

  
  
  instead of:
  
  

  Code

  if (!pnSecAuthAction(0, 'testmodule', "::", ACCESS_ADD)) {

  
  
  Is that right?
  
  Thanks,
  Grant

  Yes, that's it.
